Correct The cross produces a 9:3:3:1 ratio, allowing for differences due to chance. Incorrect The observed counts are not exactly 144:48:48:16, in the table's category order. Incorrect MC

You cross two heterozygous individuals (Aa × Aa) and score the offspring phenotypes.

You perform a dihybrid cross (AaBb × AaBb) and count the F2 offspring phenotypes. Assume independent assortment and complete dominance.

Which statement is the alternative hypothesis (Ha) for this chi-square test?

The cross produces a 9:3:3:1 ratio, allowing for differences due to chance. Incorrect The cross produces an offspring ratio different from 9:3:3:1. Correct The observed counts are not exactly 162:54:54:18, in the table's category order. Incorrect The cross produces an offspring ratio different from 153:55:58:22. Incorrect
